    Another. I would hopefully think this one is better than the previous. IMO the previous was just a "play though -- test all the video settings" Anyway, got all these clips in somewhat two weeks. Enjoy 8 mins of KAG playing!

    Really nice clips, good song choice, and you had some nice little synch ups there.

    I think you could work on a few things though. I'm no expert but I feel like montages need to have a kind of flow to them, just like music. Like, rad guitar solos are awesome and they can be the best part of a track- but you can't have an 8 minute guitar solo and call it a song. You quickly get numbed to the awesomness, and I kinda felt that here. Right off the bat you hit us with big sexy killstreak after big sexy killstreak and at first it was like "woah that's awesome" but after a few minutes it started to blend together. I think your videos would be a lot more enjoyable if you mixed it up more.

    Another thing is that I feel the clips are not really "framed well". Like that first clip was super hot but it didn't feel super hot because there was no lead into it- you had already killed 3 or 4 people before I really settled into the video. The music was also like, build up music not climax music so it made me feel like I should be waiting for the cool thing rather than enjoying the cool thing. Then when the music got more hype it wasn't way better than the first clip like I was expecting. I don't know hot to really articulate this but it felt like my feelings were not manipulated right. I also think you're kinda hurrying through the clips too fast like its a powerpoint presentation you're eager to finish, give us a sec to appreciate your awesome kill streak!

    Also, why zoomed out? With knight combat all you really need to see is like the middle 30% of the screen, and showing the whole screen makes it hard to see what's going on. It's watchable full screen but even then everything outside that 30% is just distracting really.

    Lastly I think it was a little long. People don't have good attention spans these days, yaknow. :P I think it would be much more enjoyable if you made several 2-3 minute long videos than one big thing. You want people to be left wanting just a bit more, not sitting there thinking "ok this is cool but when is it going to end".

    That said this video was great and it's inspiring me to make videos again.

    Hahahah, yes. I do agree with all of your words, yes.

    I'm fairly new to all this "video editing -- mixing, cutting, pasting etc". I just like to have fun on trying out new things. And yes, it doesn't seem much work as it's pretty much only fading in and out of the clips and audio editing. Although, it may not be the greatest like some people out there. But I had an awesome time doing this, and plan to keep doing this in the future.

    It's kind of you to leave a comment here, Contrary. I respect that. I do need improving with my 'organising?' throughout the videos, too. Though, I prefer to create longer, good videos than short awesome ones like you did. I guess I can try new things out anyway.
    I'll try and get to work later tomorrow or something, thanks.

    ---
    Anyway, thanks for the comments guys, really appreciated.

    Hmmm, I mostly agree with contrary, although you do show great promise with your editing skills, such as that point at 1:29 where the music picks up as gurin bounces of the tent (?). Anyway, awesome combat skills and always improving video editing skills. :thumbs_up:
